(A) The keeping of an unlimited number of dogs and cats in the village for a considerable period of time detracts from, and in many instances, is detrimental to the healthful and comfortable life for which the areas were created. The keeping of an unlimited number of dogs and cats is, therefore, declared to be a public nuisance. The terms
DOG and CAT shall be construed as provided in § 96.01.
(B) (1) It shall be unlawful for any person or persons to keep more than three dogs and/or three cats within the village, with the exception that a litter of pups, a litter of kittens or a portion of a litter may be kept for a period of time not exceeding five months from birth.
(2) The provisions of this section shall not apply to any establishment wherein dogs or cats are kept for breeding, sale, sporting purposes or boarding.
(C) In the areas where kennels are permitted, no kennel shall be located closer than 200 feet to the boundary of the nearest adjacent residential lot.
